How much detail?

Small contours and closely arranged details reward a pointed pencil. Some fine texture marks sit within larger open areas. About the labels.

Alternate two muted colors through the feathers and leave the face lighter.

A small coloring tip

A sharp pencil suits the narrow details. Start lightly; leave small white spaces when the texture is already dense.
